Canon Zoombrowser EX 4.5.1a Better?

MESSL · 18th of February 2004 (Wed)

I have a Canon G1.

I have kept my zoombrowser updated and was very happy with the version I had before my computer crashed last week thanks to some idiot who decided to invent DOOM!

After having to re-install Windows XP, my zoombrowser wouldn't work. I called Canon and they were kind enough to help me download the latest version 4.5.1a.

I understand that the previous version was causing problems for some cameras, but....

The previous version allowed me to highlight a picture and then the first picture would be unhighlighted when I highlighted a second picture.

The latest version is like it used to be as far as if you highlight a picture, it stays highlighted no matter if you click on another picture.

That drives me nuts! I find it a pain to have to go back and unhighlight every picture!

I hate the thought of going back to the "unlatest" but I may.

Do any of you have this problem or am I just picky?

It has nothing to do with versions. Just go to Tools - Preferences - Selection and set it to Windows Standard.........

Just curious, what are some new features in 4.5.1a over earlier versions? I have 4.1, should I upgrade? Where did you download the latest version from the Canon web site?

I set about installing Zoombrowser 4.5.1a last night (I run Windows 2000) - and so far have failed to get it into the right place. I have my programs in D drive rather than C drive. I managed to download ok, but failed at the next stage.... Any help would be welcome! I currently have version 4.0.2.120 of Zoombrowser, and have a few problems with it.

Cheers

OK! now I'm confused

which isn't that hard. I have Ver 4.5.148 is Ver 4.5.1a newer or what ?

Stoneylonesome,

Could your version number be 4.5.1.148?

I think that is the most recent version.

Stoneylonesome,

Your version number is 4.5.148, not 4.5.1.148?

right you are darn fingers they just type faster than I can think

still doesn't answer my question as to the 4.5.1a though

MESSL · 19th of February 2004 (Thu)

I'm sorry I haven't been around to post. I thought I would get an email if someone replied. Whatever.

I've always just called Canon and have had them help me download the latest version. The man I talked with last night said this was the latest version.

Anyway, do you all have to un-highlight every pic?

I think PeterS45 stated this already:

"Just go to Tools - Preferences - Selection and set it to Windows Standard........."

After making this change, you will not have to un-select images.

My apologies, PeterS45, my brain cells are going fast. Thank you so much. I'll try that, and hopefully, it will solve the problem!

Again, thank you!

It works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hallelujah!!!!!!

The Canon tech didn't even know to do this.

Your check for $1,000,000 is in the mail! THANK YOU!!!!

I just downloaded and upgraded my ZoomBrowser EX to 4.5.1a. The web site said it's 4.5.1a, but after I upgraded the software and go to Help->About menu item, it says the version is 4.5.1.148. Hope this clears up any confusion.
